Title: Drought,What Drought

THis is the same bridge from a year ago and now. The Lake went from 80% low to Over flow from all the snow we got. This is the Largest Lake in Colordo. Surface area   9,180 acres

I am pretty sure there were too many praying for wet winter and it is still being wet out here. We hardly ever see rain here and it has been one wet spring and summer as well.

Blue mesa! My dad lives over that way, he has been telling me how low it is an how it would take 10 years to fill it back up. Lol now the spots he likes to fish are under water.

Yea I thought the same thing he did until we got all the snow and rain this year. It is at Over flow conditions and they have to let out more water than ever before.

I’m on the other side of the divide in C.C., and we’re bone dry! How about sending some of that rain my way!
